"I really believe that 2020 was our top year of innovation ever, between the phones and the Watch and the iPads, and M1.

And if you find that, it makes all the difference in the world. And you will know it when you find it because you will feel it. You'll be able to get up every morning and feel refreshed and charged up, ready to go again. And if you don't, you won't."
